So Branston wins marginally on percentage of tomatoes. But, Heinz ingredients look a bit more natural - no 'flavourings' or 'Modified Maize Starch'. I'll wager that the added modified maize starch is what means Branston doesn't get a little water on the top that needs a quick shake to mix in - I suppose you pay your money and make your choice about which matters most to you.

I like Branston but the Lidl's ketchup is the best IMO

We always used branston until we were at a friends a few month back and they had lidls, tastes the same if not better, even did the lidl taste test on the daughter and lidls won(_;)

How do you get in 151g of Tomatoes into 100g?

I imagine they must reduce them, so they are more concentrated?
